Can Anyone steer me in the right direction here all I am looking for is the
configuration that will allow me to use the date selector as a form option
in simple options. Every other form option works (select, check box etc)
and will pass info from the item to the cart and to checkout. Any help on
this would be greatly appreciated. I tried upgrading to the nightly build
and it still doesn't work with the foundation demo. Thanks for your time in
advance!
